Pyrofani Tavern in full

Pyrofani sits on the Skiathos Town waterfront and surfaced in our research not through any guide or listicle but through residents recommending it to visitors on forums. On an island this heavily written about, that is a meaningful distinction.

The cooking is home-style: moussaka, grilled squid, sea bass and bream, in portions reviewers call generous at prices they call reasonable.

It runs a Facebook page and nothing else. No website, no Tripadvisor rating we could capture — a well-regarded waterfront taverna operating almost entirely on word of mouth.
